What We Believe
As a Christian church, Seventh-day Adventists are a faith community rooted in the beliefs described by the Bible, that expresses God’s desire to be in an eternal relationship with us.
God’s greatest desire is for us to see a clear picture of His character. When we see Him clearly, we will find His love irresistible. For many, “seeing God clearly” requires that they see God’s face. However, how He looks is not the issue. Seeing and understanding His character is what’s most important. The more clearly we understand Him, the more we will find His love irresistible. As we begin to experience His love, our own lives will begin to make more sense.
Jesus’ disciple John, wrote that if everyone wrote all the stories they knew about Jesus, the whole world could not contain them. Our knowledge of God helps us understand His love, character, and grace. Experiencing that love begins a lifelong adventure in growth and service. This knowledge and experience power our mission to tell the world about His love and His offer of salvation.
God loves us even when we choose to reject His love. In those times He allows us to walk away into the life of our own choices. Yet He is still there, always ready to redeem us from the results of our decisions.
Our Heritage
The North Bronx Seventh-day Adventist Church originated as a Branch Sabbath School of the Yonkers Seventh-day Adventist Church on May 20, 1967. The shade of a large tree on property owned by the Church at East 219th Street, served as the Sanctuary for eleven (11) individuals, led under the divine guidance by Elder Louis Wisdom on that day.
One week later, May 27, 1967, as a result of the efforts of Elder Wisdom and Elder Michele Cicale, the small group began to worship in rented space at the Emanuel Baptist Church, 216th Street & White Plains Road.
The group experienced such rapid growth that by October 1967, they were organized by the Greater New York Conference of Seventh-day Adventists as the North Bronx Seventh-day Adventist Company. A year later, in September 1968, they were organized into a church with 56 foundation members.
Our Community
Our church family is a diverse group of people, nations, cultures and heritages. We strive to make North Bronx a place where everyone has a seat at God’s table.
Whether you are from the West Indies, the deep south, an eastern land or right here in New York City, North Bronx is known as the caring church where everybody is somebody.
Located in the Williamsbridge area of the Bronx, our community is full of different friendly faces and stories.
